SHANKAR RESIDENCY - Lodge in Akkalkot - Solapur, India

Before booking, when we saw the reviews we were little hesitant to book, however after the stay I must say there is lot of improvement & they have worked on the feedback. The rooms were very clean, the staff was quick to respond to our requests, the + is proximity to Vatavruksha Shree Swami Samantha Mandir, it is just few steps to one of the entrance to Mandir & just opposite to the Residency's entrance. The owner was really helpful & guided us on the Darshan , Aarti , he also came with us to book an autorickshaw for our visit to Samadhi Math & Khandoba Mandir. Thanks a lot Shankar Residency for the hospitality & good stay!

It was really a great experience at Shankar Residency, Rooms clean , 24h hot water, Well equipped with Wifi and Tv and most importantly Car parking,One of the best place to stay in Akkalkot , vear near to Swami Temple. Sharing one of my experience I told them that my kid is small can you please ensure rooms are well clean and senitize before we come and it was really a best experience they did is as we requested. For me it's 5 Star Thanks Mayur

If you are coming to Akkalkot this is the best place you can find to live because of the location perk it has. The main Swami Samarth mandir is right in front of the hotel and you save on transportation and receive the best vibe to stay at. If you are staying here your chances to visit the temple and attend the mandir aarti is 10x. Also the owners and management are really nice and efficient people, we received very kind welcome for a tea party at their place also. You would have nothing to complain its the best option you can have.

Had my second stay here with family since last 10 months. Location is 5 mins walk from Vatavruksha Swami Samarth Temple. Paid breakfast service available from 07 to 10 am in lobby. Rooms (including washrooms) were very clean. We booked one Ac (#305) & one Non-Ac (#202) room. Reception guys were responding well to requests (we requested water bottle over service phone) Owner was considerate to turn on Fan in lobby when we were checking out in the morning. Elevator is available in the property. P.S. if you taking steps to climb in night, you can switch on the stairway lights. Switch is at stairways. Overall, great experience once again.

Very clean & tidy rooms. Excellent room service. Polite staff. The owner Mr Hindole is very humble and polite. This was our third stay in Shankar Residency with family.

Clean and descent rooms. Service was also very good. The location of the hotel was perfect, just in front of the temple. The owner of the hotel was also very helpful.Strongly recommended, do visit

Overall its a very good place to stay for people who travelling for Swami Darshan, just cross the street and you are in temple premises. The staff is courteous and friendly. Ideal for family stay.

No cleanliness. The only good this that it is just next to Swami mandir. Otherwise bathrooms were dirty. They did not clean before allotting the room. Cupboard and drawers were not cleaned. You can get better options in this budget.
